Exactly which processor does the x3i have? I can't find this on Dell's site. I have seen one review (cnet) stating it is the PXA255 which according to intel supports 32 MB ROM(http://www.intel.com/design/pca/prodbref/252780.htm), and another (on bargainpda.com) stating it has a PXA263 which according to intel only has up to 32 MB ROM(http://www.intel.com/design/pca/prodbref/251671.htm). This 32 or 64 issue keeps coming up. I realize that about 32 MB of ROM is used by PPC2003, but isn't there a program that reports the total amount of both RAM & ROM - including what's in use? I'd really like to put this issue to rest - I want ~96 MB available for my use (128 total) and it appears, at least according to Intel's document, that Dell has mis-advertised its product.
